Q: I live in Columbia, Missouri, and am a junior at Rock Bridge Highschool, where Reggie Dent played. What is expected of him this season, and how do you see him contributing in future seasons? -- question submitted by Jesse Bishop, Columbia, Mo.
Coach Harbaugh: Reggie Dent has demonstrated he will be an outstanding back at Western Kentucky. We've been reluctant to play him this year since we have a senior at running back, so we are trying to redshirt him. If everyone stays healthy, he will still have four more years of eligibility. We are pleased with his development his freshman year, though.
Q: In your league where is the toughest place to play with consideration of team, fans, Refs? -- question submitted by Russ Hake, Mineral Ridge, Ohio
Coach Harbaugh: Northern Iowa, in my opinion, because of the unique playing conditions in the dome. It's a smaller dome than some that I have been in like the AstroDome or the Carrier Dome, so the noise is much more pronounced. It is difficult to audible and coordinate your cadence -- it's just a tough place to play.
